Built Into Your Outdoor Build
Systems planned from day one so drainage, irrigation, and lighting work together seamlessly
A beautiful outdoor space is only as good as the systems that support it. Your pool, your patio, your garden, your lawn, all of it depends on the right drainage, the right irrigation, and the right lighting working behind the scenes. At BR Design Build, our landscape systems services are designed to protect your investment, keep your grounds performing their best through every Maryland season, and make your outdoor space shine from morning to night.
Your custom outdoor space is not complete without the right systems in place. We design and install custom irrigation systems that keep your landscape healthy without waste. We plan and execute yard drainage and grading solutions that redirect water away from your home and hardscaping before it causes damage. And we design and install landscape lighting that highlights your property’s best features and extends your outdoor living space well into the evening hours. Everything is managed in-house by the same team that builds your outdoor space.
The difference between an outdoor space that looks great for a season and one that holds up for decades comes down to the systems underneath it. Here is how BR Design Build gets that right.
We design and install three core landscape systems, drainage and grading, custom irrigation system installation, and professional landscape lighting, all managed in-house as part of your complete outdoor build or as standalone installations for your existing property.
Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Julia Pribyl HamWe are very pleased with our BR Design Build stone patio that was installed late summer 2023. Over the past winter and spring we noticed a little bit of patio settling around our window well, and I reached out about maybe having it repaired. BR Design Build sent someone out ASAP to address the settling and it is back to perfect. I can't recommend them highly enough. It turns out the settling was not even due to improper patio installation, but the builder of my house did not compact the soil well enough around the window well.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Pamela TurnerWe hired BR Design Build to install a hardscape around our new Generac Generator. The frame was made of tiles that matched our patio floor. The frame was filled with river cobble stones. We also had Craig install a ramp made of matching tiles, in front of our shed. We have worked with BR Design Build on other projects including retaining walls, soil erosion solutions, French drain installation and walkways.The quality of the work is always excellent and the prices are reasonable. I am already planning to hire Craig and his team for a future project next year. We would recommend BR Design Build to design all your landscaping needs.+0Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Don WesnerBR Design was very helpful with practical ideas and installed a beautiful walkway entrance to my property. His team was very diligent, professional and I would highly recommend them.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.George LucasSuperb customer service and craftsmanship on a complete pool and deck resurfacing. Great prices, too. I recommend Craig, Rene, and the team at BD Building & Design enthusiastically!VerifiedKate C.Highly, highly recommend BR Design Build! Craig is a rare gem in his field and then some--an absolute wealth of knowledge. He provided practical, effective, and beautiful solutions to every issue I have (many!). He is honest, relatable, and genuinely likes helping people specific to their budget and desires.VerifiedRuss S.This company was great to work with. From the initial contact with Craig ( came out and discussed what we wanted and provided an initial quote that was competitive and very close to final price). Crew arrived on time and worked diligently. We were removing a lot of landscape around original patio and extending the original patio by replacing with pavers. The crew dug up and disposed of old plants/bushes. BR researched the type of paver that was used on original portion of patio (we were 2nd owner and didn't have records) and the new stones matched really well. They Had to work around an initial design and the final outcome looked great. The crew cleaned up after themselves and left the property looking as they found it. Craig and team were all friendly and easy to work with. Would highly recommend them for patio work.VerifiedHeather G.Craig is an absolute angel. We had work done to regrade our front yard, install a silt trap and have two pop ups put in. Our HOA was a nightmare about it and Craig was professional and fantastic throughout the entire process. His team not only did a fantastic job, they came back and moved one of the pop-ups back by a few inches after the HOA came around with a measuring tape. I cannot recommend BR Design Build more highly.VerifiedChris J.We had several projects that needed to be completed around our home including a patio and walkway, as well as tree planting. I must say from the very start Craig, was a pleasure to work with, from our first meeting all the way through the process. He walked our property with me as I explained to him what it was we were looking for and gave insights and suggestions that were within my budget. Most contractors that came out gave inflated estimates and were trying to price with "add ons" that were not needed. Once we chose BR, Craig was top notch all the way. He was communicative, open, honest, and most of all......on time. I can not tell you how refreshing that is!! Most contractors I have ever dealt with are all over the place with time frames and scheduling (what's new right). But BR was different. Once contracted they gave specific deadlines and not only met every one of them, but were finished early!! Early and quality work they will stand by. Amazing in this day and age! BR workers were just as friendly and polite as their principle. I would highly recommend BR Design and build. I would choose them again and again based on this very pleasant and easy transaction. Craig Smith and his team at BR Design and Build are fantastic. Thank you!VerifiedKathleen A.My experience with Craig and his crew was exceptional. The job was fairly small. He extended a flower bed, tilled in a large amount of rich soil and helped me pick out shrubs and a tree. They planted and mulched. He also installed a brick walkway between my neighbors' driveway and mine. His crew was very professional and punctual. Craig did a larger job for my neighbor and we have both had compliments on jobs well done. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again and highly recommend them.VerifiedTamika S.What an amazing experience. From start to finish, Craig has been responsive. It poured down raining and when I tell you my yard is so dry, I am so impressed with his work to waterproof my yard. We are now hoping to use him to section off our yard and design us a new backyard. You won't be disappointed. Very up front, honest and reasonable!!! A++++

We Design
We evaluate your property, your landscape, and your existing outdoor systems. We then design a custom irrigation, drainage, or lighting plan built around your specific property and needs.
We Build
Our team handles every phase of installation in-house. No subcontractors. Every system is installed with full knowledge of the rest of your outdoor space to ensure everything works together seamlessly.
We Deliver
Once your systems are installed, Craig walks the property with you to review every detail. We test every zone, every fixture, every drainage point, and do not consider the job finished until everything is performing exactly as it should.
